The Goddard School

We had the most wonderful experience at The Goddard School. Our son started at just 5 months old, and now at 15 months we are so sad to be leaving due to a move. From day one, the staff made us feel like family. The communication was excellent, and every teacher and staff member was incredibly kind, attentive, and supportive. As first-time parents easing into childcare, Goddard gave us complete peace of mind. Our son learned and grew so much during his time here, and it was amazing to see his development supported in such a nurturing environment. Nikisha, the owner, is truly hands-on, personable, and present, which makes such a difference. The directors and teachers are also fantastic and always welcoming. We highly recommend The Goddard School to any family looking for a caring, high-quality daycare — we will miss it so much!

All 3 of my girls have gone through school at Goddard and now after-school for my oldest. The teachers and staff are pro-active with learning and very loving if kids have a hard time. The owners and staff have done a lot to limit teacher turnover which is one of the most important factors in giving kids a consistent school experience, in my opinion. Our girls love the teachers here and are always excited to go.

We’ve had an amazing experience with this daycare, and it’s honestly bittersweet to be writing this review because we’re only leaving due to a move. My son started here in the infant room and is now in the 1s, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place for him during these important early years. From day one, communication has been excellent. As a dad, it gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing we were always kept in the loop about his day, his progress, and anything going on at the center. Safety is clearly a top priority, and we always felt confident leaving our son in their care. Most importantly, our son has been genuinely happy here. He learned so much, developed socially, and was always excited to see his teachers. The staff is incredible—kind, patient, and truly invested in the kids. You can tell they care deeply about what they do, and it shows in how the children thrive. Special shoutout to Nikisha, the owner for being so incredibly personable and kind to us since day 1! We’re really going to miss this place and the wonderful people who helped care for and teach our son. Any family would be lucky to have their child here. Highly recommend.

I have an infant and toddler in this daycare and we could not be happier! The teachers in both rooms have been wonderful. They are very attentive and my infant transitioned so seamlessly. The owners truly care and strive to make it a wonderful place. I highly recommend!

We have two children at Goddard State Bridge. One is 3 years old and the other does the afterschool program. We moved recently before starting kindergarten and did summer camp and after school program. This helped my shy son make friends that would go to his new elementary school. Also having a small group of kids for afterschool especially other kindergarteners helped him have another safe comfortable group of friends. So for that I think that was the best thing we could have done for him. I like the teachers that both of my children have and that the class sizes are small. The kids are much better behaved here than my last school which was had double the amount of kids. Also my kids love their Goddard teachers. My three year old goes full time and is happy to go to school in the morning. They do alot of art, learning to use computer, learn Spanish, and letter writing already.
